Measure
Front Gear Train
Measure the piston ring gap by installing the piston rings into
the cylinder bore in which they will be used. Position the rings
below the ring reversal area. Position each ring in the cylinder
89 mm [3.5 in] below the top deck (A), and using a clean piston
to square it with the bore.
The piston ring sets are different. While both sets consist of
three rings, the top ring of the turbocharged/aftercooled set
has a keystone profile that operates in a ni-resist insert cast
into the piston. The naturally aspirated (NA) top ring is square
cut and operates in a groove machined into the aluminum
piston.
